This is a fair idea. Or allow for a restructure of the debt so that the interest rate is very very low and the payments are very small.

I have a friend that got out of college and the job he was able to get wouldn't allow him to live and pay back his student loan at the same time. they restructured his loan to lower the payment, but now the total he will pay back is obscene. He borrowed a total of 60K. When it is all said and done he will pay back almost 400K.
